+1 to the OP and Mehall's response!

I've never understood the attraction to desktop widgets. They make for nice eye candy in screen shots, but seem impractical for everyday use.

I understand it's not a beta... just saying I was confused. :lolflag:

Nah... I only installed it a few days ago! When I first saw "Shiretoko" I got freaked out, did a search to find out what the $%^&#$ it was and read it was a beta. :grin:

My mistake... I thought I saw "Beta" in my installation's "about" screen.


I guess I understand the distinction, but in the case of something like the default browser I consider this is a...

I apologize in advance to those who see this as pointless complaining... but the current implementation of Firefox 3.5 via synaptic is pretty disappointing.

I realize there are workarounds for the...

Maybe someone could develop a form of login karma where how productive you are in a session determines how well your system runs on your next reboot?

Sorry, couldn't resist. :)

I actually think...

You could also just add "Window List" and whatever other gnome applets you want to the top panel and live without a bottom panel... It frees up a little more desktop real-estate. :)

Hi geneross,
There's Gnome Photo Printer and PhotoPrint... both under Add/Remove programs. I can't vouch for either since I haven't tried them yet, but it looks like they both do what you are...

It may just be the application you are opening them with doesn't play Gif animations... My system opens them for preview in Eye of Gnome which does not.

Try right clicking the Gif file and...

Don't you watch movies?!? You're supposed to throw something at the monitor and break it! :)

I think all Linux is really missing is better support from hardware vendors. Most of the complexity people experience is a result of some device not working properly. The community does an incredible...

+1 to this... I had issues with 8.10 and gnome network manager applet on my laptop... It constantly prompted me to reenter my Wifi network password at login and only connected sporadically.

It's under Applications > Accessories.

There is also a great "Save for Web" plug-in for Gimp (similar to PhotoShop's Save for Web). It allows you to preview different compression options.

Hard to say without seeing exactly what the JavaScript renders. Have you tried selecting the area on the rendered page in Firefox, right clicking and selecting "view selection source"? This might...

I think Coke tastes better than Pepsi, so Pepsi should make Coke or get out of the soda business...

...oh wait. Maybe I should just drink Coke and quit complaining. :D


Sorry for if this...

LOL... probably not the exact branding the Ubuntu team is looking for, but I like it! :)

Actually, I believe if you are have Compiz-Fusion enabled you can use Emerald to get transparency.

I just recently read about this exact topic over at Smashing Magazine! They've put together a great list. :)

I am sorry, but the statement "A WYSIWYG editor is for somebody without any knowledge of web building, and needs to cut and paste a website together without caring about any of the code, or if it...

If you just want to do some cartoon style animation, KToon might be an option... http://ktoon.toonka.com/index.php

I have never personally used it, so I can't really vouch for the quality or ease...

I agree with smartboyathome... I've tried both and have been much happier with Inkscape so far.

Of course there's no reason you can't test em both and form your own opinion as well... That's part...

That is assuming people don't mind making it work. The average Linux user enjoys this part of the process, at least to some extent. But there are a lot of people out there that just want to have it...
